Below are tabulated the measurements in millimeters of one. 
hundred and sixty-six Expedition specimens, ninety-eight 
males and sixty-eight females.

Length in flesh: Twenty-four males, 395 - 425 mm. (412) ; 
twenty-two females, 390 - 425 mm. (407.5). 
Extent: Seventeen males, 100-105 cm. (102.2);  thir- 
teen females, 98 - 108 cm. (102.1). 
It will be seen from the above measurements that the fe- 
males do not differ materially in size from the males. 
The two eggs referred to above are dull white; the one 
taken from the oviduct is ovate in form, and the other ellip- 
tical ovate. They measure respectively: 61.4 x 44.1 mm. and 
61.5x 39 mm. Heretofore the egg of this species appears to 
have been undescribed. 
Pterodroma neglecta (Schlegel): NEGLECTED PETREL 
Coves— strelata neglecta, IV, 147, 170. 
SaLvin—Cstrelata neglecta, 399, 412; (?) Cstrelata arminjoniana, 
399, 413; (?) Céstrelata trinitatis, 399, 413; (?) Cstrelata 
heraldica, 399, 414. 
GopMan—Céstrelata neglecta, xlvii, 226, pl. 64; (?) CGstrelata armin- 
joniana, xvii, 229, pl. 65; (?) Céstrelata trinitatis, xlviii, 232, pl. 
66; (?) CGstrelata heraldica, x\vii, 234, pl. 67. 
Aestrelata trinitatis Giglioli & Salvadori, Aestrelata armin- 
joniana Giglioli & Salvadori, and Gstrelata heraldica Salvin 
are included in the above synonymy with a query, for their 
specific distinctness from Pterodroma neglecta has not been 
satisfactorily established.* 
From the description and plate, I infer that strelata 
chionophara Murphy”® is merely an albinistic example of 
“Aestrelata arminjoniana.”
